microRNA: Targets and Tools for Therapeutic Development

4 Mar 2013 - 5 Mar 2013

Each year, leading scientists in the microRNA field convene at Cambridge Healthtech Institute's microRNA conference to discuss the latest developments, make new connections and start collaborations. Now in its ninth year, microRNA: Targets & Tools for Therapeutic Development will deliver new findings for a range of roles microRNA can play in diseases, such as cancer, metabolic diseases and cardiovascular disorders; progress made in using microRNAs as a target for drug development; and the novel applications of microRNAs for diagnostics.

The program includes more than 20 scientific presentations across the following topics:• Therapeutic Potential in Inflammation, Cancer and Pain • New Technological Strategies • microRNAs as Biomarkers and in Diagnostics • Tissue-Based Analysis • Circulating miRNAs
